Why does my tv screen black out with atv2?
Does anyone know how to cure the screen on my tv blacking out with atv2? It occurs whether watching a movie from iTunes or Netflix, flicking through my iTunes library or when the photographs scroll when listening to music. I have latest software, tried resettting the atv and also changed the hdmi cable. Any help would be appreciated.
I bought ATV last night and have the same issue. Mine screen is up for no more than 60 seconds at a time so it really is useless. I'm going to try different things today to see if I can figure it out, but no answers yet.

Why does my computer screen black out
Re: Forums
I'm using an Hp Pavilion Slim Line s5260f desk top pc. I have posted this thread several weeks ago. It seems that I loose my screen on occassion while I am operating my computer. When this happenes the computer blacks out and my screen turns into a very dark shade of blue almost black. Having to force shut down the computer to turn it on again. In the past I have changed my monitor which worked for a while. Another time a short while ago when this happened I unpluged the power chord and the chord going from my monitor to my tower and plugged them in again which worked for a while It has blacked out again. I am asking if anyone has an idea of why this happens on occasion so I can try to address this issue be it now or the next time it happens. I am also hoping that I have posted this question in the proper catogory in the Hp forum. Thank you Jerry.JrJerry,
Is this the Nvidia driver update that failed to install? It should install.
Working on instructions for event viewer (event viewer may be a dead end) but could you send a screenshot of Device Manager?
Go to Control Panel - Device Manager. Then use Microsoft's snipping tool.
It should look like this ( image ).
I am interested in the display adapter. This image is an example of a system with no device errors.
Please open an admin command prompt. Then enter this command: sfc /scannow
One last thought, roughly when did you purchase your system and when did this problem start? If the system was fine until recently and the Nvidia drivers (software) are corrupted then a restore should correct the problem. I would only suggest this course of action after all else fails, especially not being able to update the Nvidia drivers. If the problems remains after a restore then it is hardware or heat related.
We may have to restore the system back the factory image. Did you create an HP Recovery Disk set?
Make sure you back up all important data as a system recovery will reformat your harddrive and, in the process, erase all data and programs you have installed since you purchased the computer.
If we can't solve this problem maybe one or more of the other very knowledgeable forum members can assist.
One last point, in an earlier reply I had suggested you try DVI if currently using VGA and vice versa. This was suggested to eliminate a possible flakey input-output vga or dvi port connection to the mainboard. This would indicate a mainboard failure. The only solution would be to replace the mainboard with the same type (correctly tatooed HP) mainboard. It may be cheaper to replace the system if this is the case.

Screen Black Out with Premiere Pro CS5
The way it happened for me is that I was editing 720p 60fps video on a 720p 24fps project. I've done this on After Effects with no problem whatsoever.
I imported a folder with 24p and 60p footage to this 24p Project and as I was setting in and out points for my 60p footage the screen went black. The screen just turned off but audio was still playing. I set the in and out points by pressing the shortcuts "I" and "O." After I pressed the "O" right away the screen died. BTW I was using an iMac 21.5"...
The computer did not respond to any keystrokes or any movement of the mouse and I manually turned it off. This happened twice because I wanted to know what the problem was.
I'm guessing the problem was how I used 60p on a 24p sequence but even it that was the problem I see no reason for the screen to just die.
Anyway I would like to know anything else that you guys have in mind, in the mean time I will obviously won't edit like that again.
Thanks>hardware that couldn't take it
Not for a Mac, and second is Elements, but some ideas

Why does Browse All Versions black out TimeMachine view when using Pages '09 in Mavericks?
I have just upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks.
When I click File>Revert>Browse All Versions... for a Pages '09 document in Mavericks, the TimeMachine view just begins to emerge, but then suddenly the screen goes completely black. The only way I can recover (besides restarting) is to click on my second monitor. Then the typical TimeMachine view appears for a fraction of a second as it's exiting back to the current document view. I never get to see the previous versions, let alone work with them.
I can't find anyone in the community with a similar problem.
Also, I definitely do not want to upgrade to the new Pages, which is missing many of the features I use a lot.
How can I get the Browse All Versions view of a Pages '09 document to stay visible in Mavericks?
Note: I just discovered that I could solve this problem by disconnecting my second monitor, or by making it mirror my main monitor. Having multiple monitors seems to be interfering with the "Browse All Versions" function.Yeah, all the more furstrating when you see that osx is less polished than before and Apple take so much time to fix "simple" stuffs... (i.e: particularly no love for dual displays, lot of annoying quircks).
Well, anyhow I posted here because it was the only place google sent me to when looking for this issue. I just answered to the guy since he was alone in his thread and I had the same issue (although not with pages). Just supportin', you see
But yeah, I'll post in Mavericks section. I'll do it this w.e since I hadn't the time before. Thanks for your concern btw -
Ipad screen black out with sound
My iPad which has been working well until yesterday. All of a sudden the screen just went black. I can see the faint backlight when I press the home button. It makes the "charging noise" when it's plugged in. I know it's working and charged, it's just that the screen isn't showing anything.
Try doing a hard reset: Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new.
In that case, follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Using his article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
Good luck -

my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?
I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed. So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?

Why does my Imac screen slide and I lose my screen ~ It goes back to my desktop.
Then sometimes my screen goes to full screen without me doing any commands, and I don't know how to get out of it without going to force quit and starting all over.Hi,
When it goes full screen try moving the mouse up to top right of scren & see if there a double diagonal Arrow to click on.
On the other see if it's the silly implentation of Spaces/Mission Control/Expose in ML...

Why does the flash update install mcaffee with out asking!!!
Why does the flash update install mcaffee with out asking!!!
Because McAffee pays to have their installer "bundled" with the update. It's not right, and the "blind installer" in the update (with no opt out) has been documented and reported.
You can download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly (without any bundled installers) by clicking one of the following links.
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Bookmark those for future use. -
Can anyone help me? Why does my ipad kick me out of FB? Sometimes to the 'settings' page and sometimes to the desk top? I would like to know why this happens and what I can check or change to make it stop. I have 50.8 GB of capacity available; it is version IOS 5.1.1; model MC497LL. It is WIFI and internet via AT&T? Can anyone give me some clues on what to do; or change in settings??? Thank you very much!
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
